Bandera de México

/Sounds like "ta" (as in "taco") + "key" + "sa" (as in "salsa")/

A taco party or taco feast, an event where tacos are the main food served. In Mexico, a taquiza is the ultimate catering solution for everything from casual birthday parties to massive weddings. Someone sets up a taco station with a taquero grilling meat, and guests line up to build their own tacos with all the salsas and toppings. It is the Mexican equivalent of a BBQ cookout, except better because it is tacos.

Example

"Armamos una taquiza para el cumpleaños. -> We set up a taco party for the birthday."

"En la boda pusieron taquiza y fue lo mejor. -> They had a taco feast at the wedding and it was the best part."
